Subject: Heroes, V, Dollhouse

These are my shows right now.

Heroes-this one has improved somewhat. Not as good as season 1 but at least they have slowed down the pace. Last year had to have a twist in every episode just for the sake of it. No big end of the world plot as of yet either. Just the different heroes trying to go about their lives and running back into problems. Plus they have new villains so Sylar doesn't have to do it all the time.

V-I haven't seen the original in awhile & bet it's way dated but this new version was well done for a pilot. How long it can go is anyone's guess. Like Flash Forward, this might have been better as a mini-series. They have updated it well with media manipulation & paranoid infiltration. Elizabeth Mitchell (Juliette of Lost) stars. A priest is also part of the resistance. Some say this is a metaphor for Obama's slick "takeover." WRONG.

Dollhouse-only got 4 new eps and off the air for November sweeps. But due back in December with Summer Glau in the cast. Probably won't make it past this season which is only scheduled for 13 eps. But Fox has promised all 13 will be shown. The plot is finally picking up with the last one they played so here's hoping we get some great stuff as the show finishes up this all too brief run. See the DVD set of season 1, it includes an unaired pilot and an episode set in the future that also was unaired as of yet. The first 5 shows weren't great but #6 & onward set the show up to a level fitting for Joss Whedon. The supporting cast is excellent, the lead not so much but good enough.

Still wondering if I should jump into Fringe. Looking forward to Lost-the last season.
